Default Re: What do you do?

I am going to go head and tell you what I did and my reasoning. I want to see if my reasoning was sound.

I did not feel that I could raise the standard amount without being pot committed as that would be 1200 and half my remaining stack. Also, raising that amount into a 3200 chip pot would motivate someone to call.

I did not feel I could check with the entire table in the hand as I only had 6s so with that many people someone was sure to hit a higher pair.

Therefore I went all-in. If people were going to play, I was going to make them pay. Also, I felt that by going all in, I would whittle down the field.

I will go on and tell you what happened. I ended up getting multiple callers, hitting a set on the flop, and taking down a nice pot.

But the results don't matter. It is the thinking that I did before hand that matters.
